Wipro Stock Surges on Possibility of Former LTI CEO Jalona’s Entry

On Friday, December 22nd, Wipro shares soared nearly 7% intraday solely based on market speculation around Jalona’s hiring.

There was lots of buzz in the stock market last week about Wipro possibly hiring their former employee Sanjay Jalona.

Jalona used to work at Wipro many years ago before becoming the CEO of another tech company called L&T Infotech.

Apparently just the rumor of Jalona joining Wipro again caused their stock price to jump up almost 7% in one day!

The company hasn’t been growing as quickly as competitors and their profits have decreased.

He helped revenue grow over 6 times from $400 million to $2.5 billion! Profits also increased steadily under his guidance.
